Did anyone see the new atlas o building/Street Lighting system?

They look great.......but $70 each street lights are not in my budget or even near it. For those that can....they will be a nice addition.

Like Dave said "they look great" but my pockets aren't deep enough.

I think they are very reasonable considering they are brass and very easy to hook up and install. 

 

Besides you guys just talked about the most expensive one and all the prices are msrp. 

 

Nice job AtlasO

I'm anxious to see them in person.  I love the fact that they are LED's and brass.  Noy many of the styles that look go to me though.  I hope I like them better when I can actually see one.

Yes, got an email the other day about them. They look very nice. I might just be getting a few when available. Like some of the others posting here, maybe the price does seem a bit high, but you get what you pay for. It's possible (and I'm hopeful) that there could be more than 1 per package also, as in a lot of the ones Lionel and MTH offer.

Even so $33.95 is too high for one park lantern.

Nice, but those prices are clearly insane.

As John Arbuckle said, you get what you pay for. If you can't afford them, don't buy them. 

 

 

 

 

 

I find that the old o-gauge Aristo-Craft brass florescence street lights cheaper and nicer.

Look great! Lots of money! I'm going to see what it's going to take to scratch build them. The LEDs are inexpensive. The biggest challenge is making the reflector. 

Agreed on the amount, but a perfect solution for those of us (including me) that are electrically challenged.  For me, plug and operate with less voltage required is the ideal solution!

Very nice looking.  I wonder when they'll get around to making the clock ones actually tell the time instead of just being right twice a day.

Sigh - they are so nice they may persuade me to light my streets and downtown parks.  Like trees, streetlamps are "piranah" - something small and indidivually not too expensive that just kill your train budget because utlimately you need so many. I'm think I'd need about two dozen , maybe more.  

 

But they are nice, aren't they?  Gotta take a hard look at them.

 

Thanks for the heads up.

Good way to put it, Lee.  Unfortunately, if I put these on my layout, I too would blow out a train budget.  And you can't have just one...

I feel the same way about trees. If you buy the pre-built ones, you will quickly go broke. You can't just have one tree on a 39 X 15 foot layout. When I look at some of the big layouts people build, especially when they're modelling mountainous regions, I wonder how much $$$ these folks have to spend.

Well David it just so happens that I can afford them and I'm still not buying.

Frank,

Happen to have contact information for Andre Garcia? Sounds like the way to go on this.

Thanks
